Who is collecting the information?

When you are on a Summit911 site and are asked for personal information, you are sharing that information with Summit911, Inc., its subsidiaries and related companies. Summit911 may also contract with third party companies to perform services for Summit911 on its web site that require these companies to collect personal information (e.g. hosting a web site sweepstakes, promotion or survey, or selling software downloads).

In addition, Summit911's web sites may allow third party vendors to provide products and services directly to Summit911 consumers. Such relationships are designated with a "Provided By" or "Powered By" company legend or logo, or other similarly worded designation. If you desire to purchase a product or service from such third party, your personal information will be collected by the third-party company, and shared with Summit911. You may review the privacy practices of the third party either by clicking the link on the bottom of the page, or by clicking on the "Provided by Company" logo, which will take you to their web site. If you are concerned about the privacy policy of a certain developer or software company, you may contact them directly or visit their individual web sites.

The Summit911 web site may also contain various links to third-party web sites. These sites may provide additional information, goods, services and/or promotions. These sites are owned and operated independently of Summit911, and have their own separate privacy and data collection practices. Any information you provide to these web sites will be governed under the terms of their privacy policy, if any. Summit911 has no responsibility or liability whatsoever for the independent actions or policies of these independent sites, and is not responsible for the content or privacy practices of such sites.

Summit911 also conducts research on our users' demographics, interests, and behavior based on the information provided to us when using our site, during a promotion, from surveys and from our server log files. We do this to better understand and serve our users.
